NESHER, ISRAEL, May 16, 2026 - (ACN Newswire) - Tabor Electronics today announced the commercial release of its Anti-Drone Test and Evaluation (T&E) solution, introducing a software-defined approach to validating counter-unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS). Built on the company's Proteus™ Software Defined Radio (SDR) platform, the solution enables defense and security organizations to test and deploy counter-drone technologies in rapidly changing threat environments.

As low-cost drones proliferate and communication protocols evolve, traditional hardware-bound test environments are struggling to keep pace. Tabor's platform replaces these constraints with a programmable framework that allows engineering teams to emulate and validate real-world RF scenarios in controlled lab environments-reducing reliance on extended field testing while accelerating development timelines.

Originally developed in collaboration with leading anti-drone technology companies, the solution has already been proven in active development and integration workflows. Its commercial release brings a field-tested approach to organizations across defense, homeland security, public safety, and critical infrastructure.

At the core of the platform is Tabor's Proteus SDR architecture, combining wideband RF signal generation and acquisition with real-time FPGA processing, deep memory, and high-throughput data movement in a compact COTS system. This integration enables closed-loop testing, where detection and mitigation techniques can be continuously validated and refined under realistic RF conditions.

A Shift to Software-Defined Validation

Tabor's solution changes how C-UAS systems are tested by moving validation into the lab and enabling rapid iteration through software. New threat scenarios can be introduced without hardware changes, allowing teams to adapt quickly while maintaining consistency between lab validation and real-world performance.

This approach delivers clear operational benefits:

• Faster development and integration cycles
• Reduced dependence on field testing
• Enable predictable system performance before deployment
• Extended lifespan of test infrastructure

By consolidating multiple RF test functions into a single scalable SDR platform, organizations can also reduce tool fragmentation and improve asset utilization across programs.

Proteus SDR Platform Overview

The Proteus platform is based on a direct digital RF architecture, supporting wide-frequency signal generation and acquisition with high instantaneous bandwidth for accurate threat emulation. Programmable FPGA resources enable real-time adaptability, while flexible form factors-including benchtop, desktop, and PXI-support both component-level development and full system evaluation. Multi-channel phase-coherent operation enables complex, synchronized test scenarios.

Mark Elo, Chief Product Officer at Tabor Electronics, commented:"Counter-drone systems are being deployed into environments where threats evolve faster than traditional validation methods can keep up. We built this platform to close that gap-giving teams the ability to test against what's next, not what's already known."

CALGARY, AB AND VANCOUVER, BC / ACN Newswire / May 12, 2026 / CANEX Metals Inc. ("CANEX") (TSXV:CANX) and Gold Basin Resources Corporation ("Gold Basin") (TSXV:GXX) are pleased to announce that they have entered into a definitive agreement (the "Arrangement Agreement") to combine their respective businesses by way of a plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "Arrangement"). The combined company will be managed by the CANEX executive team.

Under the terms of the Arrangement, shareholders of Gold Basin ("Gold Basin Shareholders") will receive 0.592 shares of CANEX ("CANEX Shares") per share of Gold Basin ("Shares") held, the same consideration received by Gold Basin Shareholders who tendered to the CANEX offer to acquire Shares which expired on February 10, 2026. This represents a premium of 242.0% to the last trading price of the Shares prior to the Cease Trade Order, based on the closing price of the CANEX Shares as of May 8, 2026.

Dr. Shane Ebert, President and CEO of CANEX stated: "Today's announcement of an agreement to combine the two companies will allow us to consolidate and advance a promising gold district in Arizona. CANEX will be pleased to welcome Gold Basin Shareholders as new shareholders of CANEX."

Jordan Ross, independent director and Chair of the Gold Basin Special Committee, commented: "The Arrangement Agreement represents a strategic milestone for our shareholders. By partnering with CANEX, we are unlocking the full potential of our Arizona project while providing a stable, clear-cut path forward that resolves previous liquidity and regulatory challenges. Following a rigorous review with our professional advisors, we are confident this agreement offers the most robust and value-driven future for our investors."

Benefits to Gold Basin Shareholders

• Significant Upfront Premium to Shareholders. The consideration offered under the Arrangement represents a 242.0% premium to the last trading price of the Shares prior to the Cease Trade Order, based on the closing price of the CANEX Shares as of May 8, 2026.
• Consolidation of Gold Districts and Near-Term Exploration and Expansion. The Arrangement will consolidate an advanced oxide gold exploration camp in Mohave County, Arizona hosting multiple zones of gold mineralization with strong drill results across an eight kilometre by eight kilometre area, opening up potential near-term exploration on favourable targets.
• Diversification. Completing the Arrangement will provide Gold Basin Shareholders not only with exposure to a consolidated gold district in Mohave County, Arizona, but also to CANEX's Louise Project in British Columbia. On July 31, 2025, CANEX announced results from an induced polarization geophysical survey which identified a new and previously unknown chargeability target two kilometres west of the historic Louise deposit and a large steeply dipping zone of high chargeability below and to the north of the historic Louise deposit.
• Focused, Professional and Cost-Effective Management Team. The Arrangement places the consolidated district under CANEX's highly focused, professional and cost-effective management team, which will provide strong operational and governance oversight.
• Experienced Board of Directors. Following the Arrangement, the Resulting Issuer's board of directors will be led by experienced industry professionals, comprised of members of the current board of directors of CANEX.
• Liquidity. The Arrangement will provide Gold Basin Shareholders with a more liquid investment. On May 6, 2025, the British Columbia Securities Commission imposed a Cease Trade Order against the Gold Basin Shares. The next day, the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization imposed a halt in trading of the Gold Basin Shares on the TSXV. There is no expectation that the Cease Trade Order will be rescinded if the Arrangement were not to proceed and Gold Basin were to continue with the status quo.
• Enhanced Financial Capacity. CANEX has demonstrated an ability to raise capital and has strong support from a number of high profile industry professionals. With an enhanced capital markets profile, the Resulting Issuer is expected have even better access to lower-cost capital and an increased capability to advance its exploration properties.
• Going Concern. In the absence of the Arrangement, there is considerable risk that Gold Basin will not have the ability to continue as a going concern and realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Currently, Gold Basin has asserted liabilities of over $2 million, no cash or marketable securities and no revenue. Gold Basin's ability to raise equity financing is restricted by the Cease Trade Order.

Details of the Arrangement

CANEX and Gold Basin entered into a definitive Arrangement Agreement on May 11, 2026, pursuant to which CANEX will acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Gold Basin ("Gold Basin Shares") by way of a statutory plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia).

Holders of Gold Basin Shares ("Gold Basin Shareholders") will receive 0.592 common shares in the capital of CANEX (the "CANEX Shares", and such ratio being the "Exchange Ratio") in exchange for each Gold Basin Share held immediately prior to the effective time of the Arrangement. Upon completion of the Arrangement, existing holders of CANEX Shares and former Gold Basin Shareholders will own approximately 67.7% and 32.3% of the total issued and outstanding CANEX Shares, respectively, on a fully diluted basis.

CANEX expects to issue an aggregate of approximately 38,505,033 CANEX Shares to Gold Basin Shareholders, based on the number of Gold Basin Shares outstanding as at the date of this announcement.

The Arrangement is expected to close in June 2026, subject to the receipt of all required court, shareholder, regulatory, and stock exchange approvals. Following completion of the Arrangement, the CANEX Shares will remain listed on the TSXV and the Gold Basin Shares will be delisted from the TSXV.

Term Loan

Concurrently with the entering into of the Arrangement Agreement, CANEX and Gold Basin have agreed to enter into a senior secured term loan (the "Term Loan") as soon as practicable pursuant to which CANEX will lend up to $900,000 to Gold Basin at an interest rate per annum equal to the Royal Bank of Canada Prime Rate plus 5.0%. The maturity of the Term Loan shall be six months and the Term Loan shall be secured by a first ranking general security agreement over all of Gold Basin's present and after-acquired assets, a first ranking mortgage charge over Gold Basin's split mineral rights and first ranking security agreements encumbering all of Gold Basin's other mineral tenure. The proceeds from the Term Loan will be used by Gold Basin for aged payables, day to day working capital and general corporate expenditures, direct advances paid by CANEX to third party suppliers, service providers and creditors of Gold Basin, and expenses in connection with the Arrangement. The Term Loan is not contingent on the completion of the Arrangement.

The Term Loan is subject to the approval of the TSXV. No fees are payable in connection with the Term Loan.

Founded in 2007, TopNC was led and established by Dr. Wang Yuhan, an associate professor at the School of Mechanical Engineering, Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Headquartered in Shanghai, the Company is a national-level key “Little Giant” enterprise and a “Specialized, Fined, Peculiar and Innovative” SME. The Company focuses on the R&D, production, and sales of high-end intelligent manufacturing equipment, with five-axis CNC machine tools at its core. While its products focus on core aviation and aerospace scenarios, they also extend to general industries such as automotive, energy, medical, shipbuilding, and mould manufacturing.

The most iconic breakthrough for TopNC was the successful development of the dual five-axis mirror milling machine tool prototype in 2016. This made China the third country in the world, after France and Spain, to master this technology, breaking the long-term technical blockade by Europe, the U.S., and Japan. Since then, the Company’s product line has been incorporated into the manufacturing systems of the C919 large aircraft and the Long March series carrier rockets, covering core equipment links for China’s full range of rocket manufacturing.

According to the CIC Report, TopNC ranked first in China’s aviation and aerospace five-axis CNC machine tool market in 2025 with a market share of 10.0%. As high-end industrial machine tools, five-axis CNC machine tools are a core symbol of a nation’s manufacturing strength. The market size is expected to grow from RMB 12.9 billion in 2025 to RMB 31.9 billion in 2030, with a CAGR of 19.8%. A more critical shift is occurring at the localization level: the market share of domestic suppliers has increased from 18.0% in 2020 to 59.5% in 2025, and is projected to exceed 78.0% by 2030. The scarcity value of TopNC is reflected in a triple barrier: first, a high technical barrier, with core technologies covering precision mechanical design, CNC systems, intelligent measurement and control, and process software ; second, an independent and controllable supply chain with a high localization rate of core components ; third, a strong customer barrier, having established over ten years of cooperative relationships with mainstream domestic aviation and aerospace groups, deeply binding with the “national team”.

In terms of financial data, TopNC’s growth curve shows a strong acceleration trend. In FY2025, the Group recorded a significant increase in newly secured contract value amounting to RMB 693.6 million. The Company’s current project backlog is approximately RMB 680 million, a substantial increase compared to the same period last year, providing strong revenue certainty and a solid guarantee for sustained high performance growth in the future.

Operational quality has simultaneously achieved a qualitative breakthrough. From 2023 to 2025, TopNC’s revenue grew from RMB 334.6 million to RMB 578.0 million. On the profit side, the Company’s adjusted net loss was RMB 61.0 million in 2023, and it successfully achieved a turnaround in 2024 with a net profit of RMB 6.9 million. In FY2025, despite increased R&D expenses, the Company maintained a profitable state with a net profit of RMB 1.6 million.

Even more noteworthy is that the Company’s net cash flows from operating activities turned positive in FY2025, recording a net inflow of approximately RMB 25.4 million. This indicates that TopNC has overcome the long-term cash flow “hemorrhage” dilemma commonly faced by high-end equipment enterprises, successfully achieving self-sustaining capabilities. The positive operating cash flow, combined with a gross profit margin maintained at a high level of 35.4% in 2025, collectively confirms that the Company has entered a virtuous development cycle of “scale expansion — profit growth — cash recovery”.

From the business structure perspective, TopNC’s core revenue is highly concentrated in the aviation and aerospace intelligent manufacturing equipment sector. In FY2025, this segment generated revenue of RMB 512.4 million, accounting for 88.7% of total revenue. Meanwhile, the Company is accelerating the development of its second growth curve: compact general industrial five-axis machine tools contributed RMB 39.4 million in revenue in 2025, with sales volume increasing from 3 units in 2023 to 32 units. Large-span carbon fiber composite five-axis machine tools achieved a commercial breakthrough in 2025, with 6 units sold for a revenue of RMB 24.4 million. The Company is the world’s first and only manufacturer to achieve commercial sales of machine tools that fully apply carbon fiber composite materials across all moving parts. This technology has a significant barrier and is adapted for cutting-edge scenarios such as low-altitude economy drone frames and large lightweight aerospace components, with a steadily expanding growth space.

The successful IPO is an important milestone, representing capital market recognition of TopNC’s twenty years of technical accumulation, and marks the beginning of a new development stage. With the support of the capital market and the empowerment of high-quality investors, TopNC will further strengthen its resource integration capabilities, accelerate the domestic substitution process of high-end five-axis CNC machine tools, and continue to consolidate its leading position in technology and the market, solidifying the foundation for long-term growth and expanding into even broader development spaces. The Company will continue to reinforce independent R&D of core technologies at a faster pace and with deeper strategic investment, drive the iterative upgrading of its five-axis CNC machine tool product system, actively participate in building an independent and controllable high-end manufacturing system in China, and work with ecological partners to explore the vast prospects of aviation, aerospace, and general high-end manufacturing.
